It's time we all take a moment here to take a deep breathe, because tomorrow we will be facing a small taste of the very long awaited Duke Nukem Forever, which will be released in the afternoon, central time. The teaser is supposed to very short, although it is no question that we should expect more in time.

It's time we all take a moment here to take a deep breathe, because tomorrow we will be facing a small taste of the very long awaited Duke Nukem Forever, which will be released in the afternoon, central time. George Broussard posted information on 3D Realm's forum which can be located here.

"Last Saturday we had our annual company Christmas party. It was a lot of fun as usual but it featured one special surprise. It turns out that several people had been secretly working late nights and into the wee hours of the morning preparing a special video for those at the party. They created a short teaser for Duke Nukem Forever.

After seeing the teaser we thought it was something we should share with all of you and while it's just a teaser, rest assured more is coming.

Tomorrow, Wednesday the 19th, around noon CST, we will release the first teaser trailer from Duke Nukem Forever. To tide you over until then, here is a screen shot taken from the teaser."

In preparation for the release, Broussard also posted a screenshot from the teaser and promises future media over time.

I know this joke is old but... Duke Nukem Forever... takes forever :D . I'll have a watch at the movie but somehow I am not expecting much. D3D will always be pseudo-3d for me and this is what made it classic ( besides the already mentioned things ). Real 3D with pumped up graphics... I mean... this just ain't Duke Nukem anyanymore :/

You know what would be hilarious? If this was all really a joke. I mean, put out a small picture here and there -- a teaser photo like today. But the name is literally what it means. They're not putting any funding into the project aside from the model of Duke Nukem. I mean, you have Prey and these other projects going out, but perhaps they just use that technology to make the files.

I hope tomorrow proves me wrong, even if the suggestion is a little far-fetched.

Now I know it would be stupid to get overly excited, but a lot of you seem to have forgotten what D3D was like or who 3DRealms are.

Duke was actually one of the most interactive games we've ever seen or played, even to the present day, there's pleanty of room for them to take that to another level with modern technology.

Also, TF2 proved that cartoonish graphics can translate to full 3d if done with enough skill.

And we aren't dealing with some modern day Uber slick half-games, half-marketing company here. We're dealing with an old-school, no holds barred, "you'll get it when it's done", legend. Don't expect 3D Realms to sacrifice any of the game's quality to political correctness. I'd fully expect strippers galore and mountains of gore.

It's Duke, but I ain't holding my breath. For the amount of time its been in development, the final result probably won't bring anything drastically new to the shooter space. The nostalgia is great, but I'd like to think that most gamers that grew up with Duke have evolved their gaming tastes since then. Then again, maybe I'm totally wrong.... ALL ABOARD THE HYPE TRAIN! CHOO CHOO!

There was more cheese crammed into that teaser than a fat man's breast folds after 2 weeks on a sunbed eating nothing but burgers!

It wont justify the 10 year dev time (what could?), but if the gameplay is fun and it's got all the personality and hallmark characteristics of Duke Nukem 3D (which it seems to be) then I'm willing to put that out of mind and let the cheese soaked testosterone fueled braindead carnage that is Duke immerse!!

This was just a teaser, theres more to come. Although i know its been a whole decade, I doubt they are going to be able let it be delayed any further. Regardless of whether or not its good, i'm excited!
